Mirror
i picked myself
apart from you.
used your bones
to build my foundation,
enclosed it with words
i never heard before.
you were so sure
that i was more
than i seemed to be,
and soon i was.
i robbed you
of compliments
and attention
and i created myself
in your vision
the way you saw me,
the way you knew me.
the way you left me.
